Quintessentially British, The Bohman Brothers’ music is a home-made and DIY conflux of some of the most virulent strains of experimental music.
A programme that looks at how sound and image can be treated as variants in a collection of ordered objects; at how to create meaning from the similar, and to notice difference.
Do ideas emerging from particle physics help to re-think of blackness as a mode of life in which it’s possible to practice difference without separation?
A collaborative performance where sound and image are created, performed and mediated by light, water and glass.
A conversation of intergenerational trans-resistance and anti-racist fierceness between two of the most inspiring public speakers we know.
Glasgow based contemporary music group Paragon Ensemble performing an improvisation with Pete Dowling, Nick Fells, Robert Irvine and others.
An introduction to gender and embodiment for cisgender folk (i.e. those whose experience aligns with their assigned gender). This will look at the ways our embodied experiences are shaped by our gender, and explore what it means to support trans siblings in practice. This session will be led by Tripod.
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
The role of feelings in public life, (political) depression and creative survival.
Jarrod Fowler creates a social space where layered one-to-one live encounters with the audience become sonic material.
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
